DESCRIPTION:\n\n JANUARY 17\, 2019 BANQUET\, MEETING AND AUCTION\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n The PSSC’s annual banquet\, meeting and auction will be held
on January 17\, 2019\, at the Sherman Library and Gardens\, located at 2
647 Pacific Coast Highway\, in Corona del Mar\, Orange County. http://www.
slgardens.org/home (949) 673-2261\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n We held our banquet l
ast year here and loved it so much we came back again this year. Wonder wh
y we loved it so much? Oh\, count the ways! A great and growing palm colle
ction\, which includes palms that PSSC members have donated. A great and g
rowing collection of other plants\, as the garden management scours the gl
obe for great material.\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n And\, plenty of free parking\,
handicapped access\, an elegant dining room\, and relatively easy access b
y pretty much everyone in southern California. What’s not to love?\n\n\n
\n \n\n\n\n This year’s speaker will be Dr. Larry Noblick\, from Montg
omery Botanical Center in Miami\, Florida. Dr. Noblick is a noted palm bio
logist\, taxonomist\, plant surveyor\, author and palm explorer. He’s al
so a PSSC member. Imagine Indiana Jones\, with a Ph.D in biology from the
University of Chicago. Aside from dozens of articles\, monographs\, etc.\,
in publications ranging from our beloved Palm Journal to academic journal
s\, Dr. Noblick has also been to all the fascinating places we dream of vi
siting\, including\, but not limited to: Madagascar (twice)\, Brazil (13 t
imes)\, New Caledonia\, Paraguay (3 times)\, the Seychelles\, Belize and m
any more. He’s the guy who re-organized the genus Syagrus. He’s been t
here\, done that\, and seen more than most of us palm nuts can even imagin
e. Serious palm nuts are excited.\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n The cost of the banqu
et is $58 per person. We recommend you sign up soon\, as we expect this ev
ent to sell out\, like last year. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n You can sign up with
PayPal via the PSSC’s website http://palmssc.org/2019-pssc-banquet-sher
man-library-and-garden-1/. You can also mail checks\, payable to the PSSC
